PEX-CM100-D 1-port Programmable CAN PCI Express Board (9-pin D-Sub Connector)

The CAN (Controller Area Network) is a serial communication protocol, and efficiently supports distributed real-time control with a very high level of security. It is an especially suited for networking “intelligent” devices as well as sensors and actuators within a system or sub-system. In CAN networks, there is no addressing of subscribers or stations in the conventional sense, but instead prioritized messages are transmitted.

ICP DAS provides an open architecture platform for CAN bus PEX-CM100. The PEX-CM100 represents a very powerful and economic solution of an active CAN board with one CAN channels, covering a wide range of CAN applications. The 16-bit on-board microcontroller allows, among many other features, the filtering, preprocessing, and storage (with timestamp) of CAN messages as well as the real-time transmission of CAN messages.

The PEX-CM100 also uses the new Phillips SJA1000T and Transceiver 82C250/251, which provide bus arbitration and error detection with auto correction and re-transmission function. Under the effect of the powerful microcontroller, this card can be made for one CAN controller without losing data, even in systems with a high bus load. Besides, equipped with integrated intelligence functions, the PEX-CM100 makes it is possible to preprocess CAN data streams, thus relieving the PC of a considerable burden. As a result, real-time requirements on the PC applications are drastically reduced. Due to the state-of-the-art, it can be installed in a slot of PCI Express bus and supported truly “Plug & play” technology.
